Entergalactic
Colored Vinyl - New - B0036707-01
Sealed 2022 Gatefold "Hot Pink" Vinyl Edition. 10th Studio Album From The Cleveland Rapper. "On The Ambitious Entergalactic Project, Rapper Kid Cudi Not Only Wrote And Starred In His Own Film, He Also Crafted A Worthy Soundtrack Of The Same Name. Technically His Eighth Studio Album, Entergalactic Features All Of Cudi's Familiar Calling Cards -- Melodic Humming, Sing-Rap Delivery, And Trippy Atmospherics -- Which Makes The Effort Enjoyable On Its Own. However, Stopping At Just The Album Would Be A Disservice To The Movie, A Visually Striking Romantic Comedy That Amplifies This Music With Its Charm And Endearing Warmth (With Plenty Of Background Easter Eggs For The Cudi Diehards). Paired With The Highly Stylized Animation And Outer Space Scene-Scapes That Pull Viewers In And Out Of Modern-Day Manhattan, Entergalactic Is One Of Cudi's Most Engaging Listens, Boosted By A Balanced Blend Of Hedonist Club Anthems ("Can't Believe It" With 2 Chainz, "Do What I Want"), Ethereal Instrumentals ("Entergalactic Theme"), And Lovelorn Yearnings ("Angel," "Ignite The Love"). In Addition To 2 Chainz, The Set Also Features Don Toliver ("Somewhere To Fly" And "Burrow" With Steve Aoki) And Ty Dolla $ign (Whose Animated Character Ky Bears Quite A Resemblance To The Real-Life Musician). While Viewing The Movie Isn't Required, It's Highly Recommended, If Only To Experience The Full Scope Of What Cudi Has Accomplished Here. Entergalactic Is A Late-Era Gem In His Catalog, A Multimedia Gift To Fans That Expands His Artistic Scope And Bodes Well For More Projects Outside The Confines Of Music." AMG - Neil Z. Yeung.

Man On The Moon III: The Chosen
Colored Vinyl - New - B0033424-01
Sealed 2022 2LP Gatefold, Limited Edition "Sea Blue" Coloured Vinyl Pressing.Light Crease Bottom Right Corner. "The First Installment Of Kid Cudi's Man On The Moon Series Was Released In 2009, When He Was Just Starting To Establish Himself As A Distinctive Creative Force. The Debut Studio Album From The Brooklyn-based, Cleveland-bred Rapper Expanded On The Stark Emotional Landscapes Blueprinted By Kanye West's 808s And Heartbreak Just A Year Earlier, With Cudi Inspecting His Insecurities, Anxieties And Other Various Demons With A Shocking Vulnerability That Was Still Uncommon On Rap Records At The Time. Cudi's Combination Of Lyrical Openness And Stardusted Production Felt Fearless And New, And The Personality That Came Into Form On 2009's Man On The Moon: End Of Day Would Influence The Next Wave Of Emotionally Charged Rappers. In The Decade That Followed, Cudi Himself Experimented With Styles And Approaches While Perpetually Battling His Demons, To Various Degrees Of Success. Man On The Moon, Vol 3: The Chosen Represents Both A Return To Form For Cudi As Much As A Distillation Of His Most Successful Experiments With Genre And Delivery. Production On Preceding Albums Could Be Somewhat Uneven Or Jarringly Ragged, But Production Values Throughout Motm3 Are Bold And Pristine. Spacy Synths And Enormous Drums Give The Record A Cinematic, Almost Sci-fi Atmosphere, Applying Cosmic Touches To Both Catchy Pop-Trap Tracks Like "Tequila Shots" And "Damaged" And More Driving Rock-inspired Numbers Like "The Void." The Moody Sung Vocal Lines And Nocturnal Energy That Defined Some Of Cudi's Best Early Material Are Revisited On Album Standout "Solo Dolo, Pt. III," And The Anguished Autotuned Hook Of "Sad People" Is Similar. There Are A Few Moments That Disrupt The Album's Flow, In Particular The Confusing Guitar Twang Of "Elsie's Baby Boy (Flashback)," The Overly Dramatic Bombast Of "She Knows This," And The Less-than-essential "Rockstar Knights," Which Finds Cudi Descendant Trippie Redd Bellowing Hollow Lyrics About A Self-destructive Lifestyle. For Every Bland Or Fumbling Track, There's One Where Cudi Successfully Evolves His Musical Language. The Glowing "Lovin' Me" Pairs Cinematic Percussion And '80s Movie Synths With Gliding Sung Verses And Guest Vocals From Indie Songwriter Phoebe Bridgers. On The Other End Of The Spectrum, "Show Out" Takes Cues From Drill For Both Its Distortion-Heavy Instrumental And The Relentless Flows That Cudi Zings Back And Forth With Guests Pop Smoke And U.K. Grime Mc Skepta. MOTM3 Marries My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy-Level Blockbuster Production With Kid Cudi's Distinctively Troubled Lyrical Perspectives And Gift For Spaced-Out Late-Night Atmospheres. Cudi Wrestles With The Same Struggles That Have Plagued Him Since He Began Sharing The Complexities Of His Internal World, But At Its Best, Man On The Moon, Vol 3: The Chosen Shows That Years Of Struggle Have Yielded Substantial Growth."
